Make direct messages easier to process
Get a clear read of what a DM asks for, what has a deadline, and what information is still missing.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Interact with the repository agent
Send a question and related information to the repository agent and receive a streaming response
Why this helps
Several direct messages can blur together, making it easy to miss a request or misread its urgency.
- Separate requests from background information
- Bring stated deadlines into view
- Identify missing details before you respond
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Entelligence to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation there or tell Notis in plain language what you want analyzed.
- 3In one prompt, ask Entelligence to organize DMs into requests, stated deadlines, and clarification needs.
- 4Choose Slack Direct Message Received as the trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real DM and verify that only explicit deadlines are called out.
Questions about this workflow
Will this analyze group direct messages too?
The supplied trigger is described as catching DMs across all DM channels. The exact accessible messages depend on the connected integration.
Does it send a reply to the person?
No. The action requests an analysis from Entelligence's repository agent; it does not send a Slack reply.
